Houllier backs Heskey to get better

Gerard Houllier believes the best could still be yet to come from Aston Villa striker Emile Heskey even though he will be 33 next month.

Heskey has been revitalised since his former Liverpool boss Houllier took charge at Villa Park three months ago. He had scored three goals in six games before suffering a knee injury and added to that tally in his comeback appearance against West Brom on Saturday.
